Entrada Battlebox Singapur

It's a very good place to learn about pre & post Japanese invasion in Singapore during World War 2. Many realistic looking British officers & things such as telephones, maps were showcased from the past. I felt nostalgia when I understand that I'm really inside a bunker that had many bitter moments during war times. There will be a guide to explain to us about pre-war history.

An insightful and thought-provoking experience underneath Fort Canning. This experience was a glimpse into the final days of Singapore under British control on the eve of the Imperial Japanese takeover in the very spaces it took place. The audio guide is highly recommended to set the scene and does very well in creating an atmosphere of the time. A highly recommended tour for those interested in military history and how people operate under pressure.

I really love this audio tour so much! firstly, I’m thoroughly amazed at the set up of the battle box in fort canning. really didn’t expect a small exhibition to be held there. secondly, the exhibition was pretty interactive. I really love the idea of downloading the audio into our phone because it lets us enjoy the tour and absorb the information at our own pace. it also provides the flexibility to adjust the audio to whichever timing we are at depending on our pace itself. the wax figurines looks so real I was taken aback initially. it makes me feel like I’ve travelled back to the past and is experiencing the same moment they felt back in war. overall, great experience and it’s definetely worth the money!

Amazing experience at. Battlebox Fort Canning. Takes you back to the olden days of Singapore during the time of World War. currently there is a temporary exhibition called portals. There is also an updated section with 270 projection mapping.

This is a great place if anyone wants to learn more about the Second World War and the events that occurred here. As we travelled with two young kids and didn’t have too much time, we decided to only go for the free tickets. To get a better experience and more understanding, I would recommend buying a tickets with the audio guide that also gives admission to all rooms. We travelled here by Big Bus Sightseeing, which was very convenient as it only took us approximately 15 minutes to walk from the bus stop (yellow line no 16). The best part of Battlebox is the dummies/dolls that are really true looking and actually made from photographs of the real soldiers working here. Highly recommended!

intriguing trip even for a singaporean . interesting tunnel with real life figures mannequins could be creepy though . there’s a cat ladder stairway leading up to light , don’t miss it . highly recommended to visit at least once

As a local, this was my first time visiting Battlebox and it was such a great experience. The enhanced experience made it even better with disposable earphones and a device provided even though it’s stated that you need to have your own phone and earpiece. Out of all the war exhibits in Singapore, this is the best!

I paid for the enhanced experience that includes the audio guide and red/blue glasses. There are a flight of steps down into the bunker. There are 13 rooms on the tour. Of these 4 have wax dummys that help bring the place to life and give sense of what it was like to work in the bunker. All 13 rooms have information cards , photographs and props to tell the story of the bunker, and the events before and after February 1942 to provide some context. I paused the audio frequently so that I could read the cards too. There is one room what you need to put on either red or blue glasses (provided as part of the enhanced experience) to allow you to read the text projected on the walls. I couldn't use these with my own glasses at the same time and found the text a little difficult to read in places. There are other rooms I took my time and spent a little over an hour in the bunker. I thought it was well worth the ticket fee. Overall worth a visit.

Sehr interessant und informativ. Vorher noch nicht so befasst mit dem zweiten Weltkrieg in diesem Teil der Erde. Audioguide (auf Englisch) hat einem alles gut erklärt. Knapp eine Stunde würde ich die Dauer schätzen, wenn man alles sich anhört und richtig anschaut.
